Need opinions on steering box brace

[Ben824]

Ok so I have the C-Rok brace but I think I still need something more as I had to take the steering box off to replace it and I saw what I think are signs that there is still some movement in this area of the frame.

I am torn between the run-of-the-mill support that connects to the other frame rail or the Kevin's Off-Road brace that connects to both frame rails which is the only one that does this to my knowledge. My concern still is how strong the Kevin's is because it is made of only small round tube and a single mounting point on either frame rail. Their ZJ units seem to be a little beefier with two bolt mounting points and big square tubing.

Any of you guys run the Kevin's Off-Road unit before? From what I have seen it seems to be only $10-$20 more than the others.

I've got the MORE mount on 2 of my jeeps and it has improved the front frame rail stiffness a lot.

I made mine... Took plate, and bolted it where factory sway bar brackets were, then welded a tube to them spanning the frame rails. Off that tube I welded a u bolt style exhaust clamp that is bolted around the steering box above the pitman arm... Has worked out great so far, and I also have the c-rok brace/spacer piece...

I wish I could make my own but I live in an apartment complex and have no garage to work out of or the right tools. I know how to weld and have a MIG welder but no way to make my own. I have $100 gift card that I need a reason to use it on haha just wanted to get opinions on the Kevin's one.

Just about everything I've seen from Kevin's works well, and holds up to abuse for a good long time. But it all looks homemade to me. His square long arms are kinda ugly, but they do the job.

This is one of those things where I don't care how ugly it is as long as it holds haha
